I was preying that this was some kind of conspiracy theory.

Those things used to scare the sh*t out of me as a kid.

Just curious, what is your sidewall rubbing on?

Does the Mantis prefer Goodyear or Bridgestone? Curious.

Every time I park mine at work it gets covered with Bugs....they love the Yellow, think they're humping the biggest flower in the world.... Ha Ha

Last Sept when coming back from Laguna Seca stopped for gas at are usual spot (done the ALMS race the last 9 years) and there was a Mantis near the Pump. I got hand down by him and he reared up into a fighting position. If I waved my hand back and forth and he'd sway back and forth with my hand...looked like a tiny samurai warrior. Very cool!

Those are one of the few bugs I like, normally hatch them out every year here.
